Abstract:
In February 2017, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook a trial trench evaluation on land at Wayside Farm, 5a Fordham Road, Isleham, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 6427 7367), as part of a scheme of pre-planning archaeological works in advance of a housing development and associated works. The trial trenching has revealed three phases of activity at the site. The earliest phase encountered relates to several shallow pit features concentrated in the south-west corner of the site. Only one of these features has revealed any datable evidence which was a copper alloy jetton dating to the early 14th century. The second phase of activity is the formation of the subsoil. Which is most likely a post-medieval agricultural soil. With the final phase being the formation of the topsoil which is currently being used for modern agriculture. Despite the high potential for medieval activity on the, only a single feature could provide a confirmed medieval date, potentially being dated to the early 14th century. The majority of features encountered on site are considered natural in origin.
